area of triangle the base is 2 1/3 yrds and the height is 3/4
please help me
use formula : Area (A) = b*h/2
half of base multiplied by height
but it is a fraction so how would I figure out 1/2 the base
2 1/3 is 7/3
7/3*3/4 right
1/2 * 7/3 = 17/6 look up mixed numbers and multiplying fractions google this patrik jmt
you need to find the lowest common denominator which is 6
then what you do to the bottom you have to do to the top
so 1/2 * 7/3 1/6 * 7/6 but you have to multiply the top as well so it becomes 3/6 *14/6
42/6=7
so 17/6 * 3/4 same process 17/12 * 3/12 but you have to multiply the top as well 51/12 * 9/12 = 60/12 this should be the answer
60/12=5 yd^2
it says for the answer ?? yrds ^2
g.o.a.t
muntoo I am going in sane
Remember the formula: area = base x height 2 1/3 yrds is the same thing as 7/3 yrds. area = 7/3 x 3/4
i do not know how to do this goat confused me more
so the bottom is 12 right
For your other questions, remember to write down every single step. Don't skip steps yet. Go over what you write to make sure you haven't made any mistakes.
Sorry, I messed up: area = base x height / 2 2 1/3 yrds is the same thing as 7/3 yrds. area = (7/3) x (3/4) / 2
That's the formula for triangles only.
I know but how do I figure that out on calculator
If you're using a "simple" calculator: 7 divide 3 multiply 3 divide 4 divide 2
.875
I feel so stupid, I have been doing 50 problems for 11 hours and still have some to go. I have to get this our I will fail my aa degree
am I right on the answer
on the answer it is saying yrd^2
Yep.
sorry 17/6 should of been 7/6
carried the same mistake all the way through on the multiplication of fractions
so my answer is .875 yrds^2
area = (7/3) yrd x (3/4) yrd / 2 = 0.875 yrd yrd = 0.875 yrd^2 Yes.
should end up with 14/12 * 9/12 = 7/8 sorry bout the errors
i will start again so u have full workings to help.
thanks muntoo and goat
I have never been so workup on math like this before, I am bolling my eyes out bevause I feel like I knew it when I started this class and now I can not remember nothing
Tips: 1) Show all your work. Be organized. 2) Study a little every day. A few days later (i.e. two days) go over what you learned that day and see if you remember. At the end of the week do a review of what you learned that week, and don't learn anything new that day. The key is not to do everything in one day -- just work on it every once in a while till you get it.
this is the final and I only get one chance that is why I am still on here because I can not get it but I cant stop because of my one chance
